Hey guys but a suggestion, should u guys think there should be a penalty imposed to GM's who go way over a certain salary limit
for arguments sake if i have 65 mil and the league average is 65 mil n there are like 2 3 GMs who have 75-80mil salaries should u think they should get some sought of salary tax or penalty imposed on their salaries or anything for the next season? or any sought of penalty.
Its just a suggestion i just want to see what all GM's think around here and maybe we can come to an agreement or just scrap the idea, i not complaining about any GM's, just out of curiosity.

Loss of draft position? Say your team has the 15th pick, they have 80mil in salary's, they move down a few draft positions? I dunno though..

I vote no penalties, or if we did it should be something like no trades with more salaries coming in then going out. (no 25% rule)

(no 25% rule) thats one good 1 u cannot be $1 over the team ur trading with so if ur total incoming salary for the trade is $22.000.000 and ur total outgoing salary is 19.999.999 then it should be rejected on basis of salary maybe? draft position sounds alright too, but then they can just easily trade away their draft picks too

I honestly think we shouldn't put additional penalties....
Why?
because it would be double jeopardy to the GM...
If one is over the salary cap, it is very hard to resign a player and it is difficult to fix trades so that it would follow the 25% rule.
That is already like a penalty
Ex: Orlando, just to resign VC he did everything he could and there was a big chance he was not to succed but fortunately he did. Just removing enough salary to resign VC was very hard for the Gm...
And if we add another penalty... it would really suck for them
BTW some teams are already above the limit when u get them... ex: Denver if there is no changes done to the squad their salary would be about 80m i think....

I wouldn't mind taking away the 125% rule.
Teams that are over the cap would not be able to have more incoming salary than outgoing salary. Pretty simple & easy. Its not even that big of a penalty.
Not final yet, though

Not final yet, though yeh i like that idea but thebest way to determine what salary u have to have is add all the teams salaries and averageit out and make that the benchmark

how do we determine some1 is over the cap?

the cap is set at 67,500,000 + a team gets 5 million via MLE
so we could set it at 75 million? kinda like a hard cap?

yeh im sure most teams are around the 67 500 000 we should set an "extreme cap" where once it surpasses that, the trade rule comesi nto play but how to determine it im not sure maybe add all the salaries , divide the number by team and then add a certain millions on it n it makes it that max cap before penalties

I say we set it at 72,500,000. If you are above that, the 125% cannot be used when you trade. If you are under 72,500,000 but over 67,500,000 you may use teh 125% rule. How does that sound?
